The next day, Mr. Qiao Hai came to the venue of the China Pavilion as promised, and Lin Zhenhua introduced him to Gao Zuxing. Gao Zuxing talked with Qiao Hai for more than an hour, completely dispelling the doubts of this overseas Chinese, Qiao Hai immediately said that he would invest 5 million US dollars in China to establish a joint venture with Hanhua Heavy Industries, and the factory site was naturally chosen in Xunyang. As for the yard of waste equipment and parts that Ma Jie and they fancied, Qiao Hai promised to give them all to Hanhua Heavy Industry for free as a meeting gift, and fully bear the sea transportation costs from Germany to China. Lin Zhenhua said that Qiao Haicai promised that the freight of this trip would be borne by Hanhua Heavy Industries. This kind of rush to pay can only happen between Chinese. It costs more than $10,000 to ship this batch of equipment back to Xunyang from Germany, but even a stingy person like Wei Jingwen did not feel distressed by this money. Just fix a machine tool casually, and the more than 10,000 dollars will be earned. In the next few days, the excitement of the exhibition has become less than that hard, and many transactions have entered the stage of signing. Several staff members of the Ministry of Foreign Trade brought by Gao Zuxing were so busy that they didn't even have time to eat. However, even if everyone is hungry and has a stomachache, they are happy. According to the summary report obtained by Gao Zuxing, this time the order signed by the entire pavilion is close to the US dollar, which does not include uncertain businesses such as the Siya tribe in South Sudan. During this period, there was also a more sensitive matter. On the day the exhibition was about to close, several buyers from the Soviet Union walked into the Chinese exhibition area and asked Zhu Jinwen about machining. Among these Soviets, there is one leader who speaks good English but does not know much about mechanics, and the other two are obviously professionals, but they are not good at English, and they speak some concepts upside down. Zhu Jinwen listened to it for a long time, and he didn't know what the other party wanted to say. He had no choice but to borrow Wei Jingwen from Lin Zhenhua, this old gentleman had learned Russian in his early years, and his skills were good. Wei Jingwen chatted with the Soviets for a few words, his face changed, and he hurriedly found an excuse and came out to report to Lin Zhenhua. "Kobayashi, do you see those Soviets?" Wei Jingwen asked in a low voice. "See, what, what equipment are they going to buy?." Lin Zhenhua asked casually. He did notice the Soviets coming to the exhibit, "but he didn't think much of it." "They're looking for equipment for complex surface processing......," Wei said. Lin Zhenhua couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart: "Complex surface processing? What do they do? Wei Jingwen said: "I suspect that they and Director Liu are peers, and the questions they ask have a lot to do with the problem of imitation five-axis machining last time...... Lin Zhenhua was a little surprised: "How could they come to us to learn about complex surface processing technology?" In any respect, the Soviet Union's machining capabilities were no worse than ours. …”
There is a situation here that Lin Zhenhua does not understand. The level of heavy industry in the USSR was generally strong, but in some respects there were short legs "especially in finishing, there were quite a few bottlenecks. In order to improve the level of machining, the Soviet Union once tried to obtain some high-precision machine tools from the West, and therefore caused a so-called Toshiba incident. The Soviet Union, which acquired several five-axis machine tools from Toshiba through secret deals, did not completely solve the problems faced by the military-industrial system in machining, and it was very difficult to get more equipment from Western countries. At this time, the spies in Shanghai sent back an important piece of information, that a submarine on the Chinese side was undergoing sea trials, and the noise of the submarine was as low as 90 decibels, which was lower than the background noise of the ocean. From this analysis, the Soviet military industry Chinese must have somehow solved the problem of complex surface processing of the propeller. At this Frankfurt Equipment Exhibition, the Soviet side sent two engineers and technicians from the military industry, and they were co-ordinated with Piyuzin, the head of the Soviet KGB in Western Europe. Their original purpose was to get in touch with Western equipment manufacturers at the equipment exhibition to see if they could take advantage of the loopholes and get some high-end machine tools. Who knows, after a few days of wandering around, they have not been able to get their hands on it, and the Western manufacturers have strictly implemented the Batumi shipping restriction policy, "refusing to provide advanced equipment to the Soviet Union." Passing by the Chinese Pavilion, Piyuzin remembered the intelligence that the spy had brought back and "walked in with two technicians." He didn't plan to get the equipment they needed from China, but he wanted to get a look at the Chinese and find out what kind of technology the Chinese had mastered to solve the problem of processing submarine propellers. "Xiaolin, go meet them...... Wei Jingwen said, "I don't know what I can say and what I can't. ”。 Speaking of which, Wei Jingwen is more than twice as old as Lin Zhenhua, but when it comes to such sensitive political issues, "Wei Jingwen is completely a primary school student." Although Lin Zhenhua is young, he has the historical experience brought by later generations, "but he has more knowledge than Wei Jingwen." Lin Zhenhua followed Wei Jingwen to the Soviets, and Wei Jingwen introduced to the Soviets: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mr. Lin Zhenhua, deputy general manager of Hanhua Heavy Industry Group, and I would like to ask him to answer the question you just raised. ”。 Lin Zhenhua's eyes swept over the faces of several Soviets, and when he saw Piyuzin, he couldn't help but think of it, the image of this person, Lin Zhenhua is too familiar, with a hooked nose, a fu-like gaze, and a smile on his face, Lin Zhenhua in later generations has seen him on TV more than once or twice. "What do you call me, sir? Lin Zhenhua asked. "My name is Piyuzin. Piyuzin replied that he was not as famous as he was in later generations, and therefore did not realize the need to remain incognito. ,
Sure enough, it was him, Lin Zhenhua looked at this future man with admiration. It was he, more than ten years later, who took charge of Russia's power, straightened out Russia's domestic and foreign affairs with an iron hand, and reinvigorated Russia, which was on the verge of collapse. Although there are various comments about this king's merits and demerits, no one can deny that he is a key figure in the future of Russia. In any case, we have to connect this line now, Lin Zhenhua thought secretly in his heart. "We are all engineers at Birdlar Machinery United Hugh, and we have encountered some technical problems in production, and we really want to talk to our Chinese counterparts...... "Piyuzin said. Lin Zhenhua secretly thought it was funny, if it weren't for the golden finger of the traverser, he might have been deceived by Piyuzin. This benevolent brother is not a KGB elite, and he is obviously talking nonsense" but there is a touching sincerity in his eyes, and Lin Zhenhua even doubts whether he has practiced the legendary mind-stirring technique. "Mr. Piyuzin, we are very interested in exchanging technical issues with our Soviet counterparts......" Lin Zhenhua said pretendically. Of course, Piyuzin himself did not understand machinery, he just played a role of a matchmaker, and after he had a few words with Lin Zhenhua, the two Soviet technicians who came with him began to ask Lin Zhenhua one question after another. They spoke English mixed with Russian, some of which Lin Zhenhua could understand, and some of which Wei Jingwen needed to translate. Lin Zhenhua is on guard in his heart, and naturally knows what to talk about and what not to talk about. He chatted with two Soviet technicians "to convince the other party that the Chinese had mastered the technology of complex surface processing, but to understand the details of this technology." The more this is the case, the more interested they are in Lin Zhenhua. "Mr. Piyuzin, I am only a factory manager, and I don't know much about the specific technical details. I think, if your company is interested in this technology, we can arrange a few exchanges between engineers in the future, what do you think? After Lin Zhenhua fished the other party's appetite almost enough, he sent an invitation to Piyuzin. Piyuzin nodded expressionlessly: "We are very interested in this. After the two sides left each other's contact methods, Piyuzin left with two technicians, who were still exchanging things with each other enthusiastically in Russian as they walked, and it seemed that their emotions had been completely mobilized by what Lin Zhenhua had just said. Watching the Soviets walk away, Zhu Jinwen pulled Lin Zhenhua aside and asked nervously: "Xiaolin" You just told them so much, did it involve state secrets? Lin Zhenhua turned around and shouted: "Schumann!" Schumann arrived in response and handed a notebook to Lin Zhenhua. Lin Zhenhua took the notebook, handed it to Zhu Jinwen, and said: "Director Zhu, I know that Sino-Soviet relations are still very sensitive, so I asked Schumann to record everything I communicated with the other party just now. This is the full text of the conversation, please see it, if it is verified"
Please sign it, and then bring it back to the professional department for identification, if the content of my presentation involves leaks, I am willing to take full responsibility. Zhu Jinwen hesitated, took the notebook, and read it carefully, then signed his name on it and put it in his bag. He did this not to find Lin Zhenhua's fault from these conversation records, but to use this conversation record to protect Lin Zhenhua. Lin Zhenhua was in contact with the Soviets and talked about many technical issues: "Many people have seen this. In case someone crooked his mouth and said that Lin Zhenhua leaked secrets, then Lin Zhenhua couldn't tell it clearly. With such a record, Lin Zhenhua was able to prove his innocence. After putting away the book, Zhu Jinwen still said in a critical tone: "Xiaolin, since you also know that Sino-Soviet relations are very sensitive, in fact, you can not say so much today. Lin Zhenhua said: "Director Zhu, do you know who these people are?" Zhu Jinwen shook his head. Lin Zhenhua said: "If I guess correctly, they are technicians of the Soviet military industry, and they are engaged in cutting-edge technology. As for the head of their team, I'm sure he was a KGB. "No, it won't!" Zhu Jinwen was shocked, "Xiaolin, since you know this, you can't contact them." Lin Zhenhua said: "Director Zhu, I have an idea, of course it is very immature. In my opinion, the relaxation of Sino-Soviet relations is an inevitable trend, and it is entirely possible for China and the Soviet Union to exchange technology on the basis of mutual benefit, so as to achieve a win-win situation. What they just asked me about was one of their core military technologies. If we can transfer this technology to them, they will certainly be willing to trade it for other technologies that we desperately need. Doing so is also very beneficial to the development of our country's military technology. Lin Zhenhua's words can only go so far. In fact, he has a more far-reaching idea, that is, to aim at the general pattern of the Soviet Union's dissolution in a few years. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, a large number of military technicians and equipment were out of control, and whoever started quickly would be able to reap these precious legacies of the former Soviet Union. Lin Zhenhua hopes that through cooperation with Piyuzin, a bridge between China and the Soviet Union will be built, so as to get a piece of the pie in the future. But how could Lin Zhenhua say such a thing to Zhu Jinming in advance? Zhu Jinwen frowned and said, "Xiaolin, your hand is inevitably stretched too far. As an elder, I would like to remind you that you are very talented, but you have too little political experience. It's not something you can meddle in the military industry, it's very dangerous, you understand? Lin Zhenhua was reprimanded, so he had to nod again and again: "Director Zhu, what you said is very right." My idea is that when we go back, we will discuss this matter with the military industry department. If the military industry feels willing to facilitate such a deal, then we are now connected to the other party, and it will be convenient to contact each other in the future. If the military industry thinks that such a deal is not interesting, it doesn't matter if we reject the other party, right? ,
I never revealed the technical details of our work, and I didn't make any promises. Zhu Jinwen hesitated for a while, and asked Gao Zuxing to invite him and tell Gao Zuxing about it. Gao Zuxing nodded and said: "It's appropriate for Xiao Lin to deal with it like this, but if there is such a thing in the future, you should say hello to us in advance." On the issue of relations with the Soviet Union, the leaders of the Central Committee of the CPC Central Committee gave instructions three years ago to normalize Sino-Soviet relations. The Ministry of Foreign Trade has opened its borders to the Soviet Union this year, so economic and technical cooperation with the Soviet Union is also permitted by policy. "However, when it comes to the military industry, will it be more sensitive?" Zhu Jinwen reminded. Gao Zuxing said: "Lao Zhu, you don't know, Xiao Lin's identity is amazing, he is a named figure in the Navy Armament Department." He stopped the Xinxin Electromechanical Company, which was to help the Navy overturn warships. Zhu Jinwen said: "Yes, yes, I remembered, there is such a thing." So, Xiaolin still has a bottom in this matter? Lin Zhenhua said modestly: "Don't dare, don't dare." I just instinctively felt that it might be profitable to do so, and wanted to help the Navy connect the line first. In fact, the technology they want does not belong to any very complex technology. Let's help them in this regard, and change one or two of the technologies we urgently need, but it's very worthwhile. "Xiaolin's business acumen is really faster than those of us who have been engaged in foreign trade all year round." Gao Zuxing said in a tone that didn't know whether to count praise or criticism, "I can warn you, Xiaolin, it's a good thing to use your brain, but it's not okay to use your brain." You can't make your own decisions about this matter before consulting Minister Zhang, understand? "Understood!" Lin Zhenhua replied
